Patients with Chronic Pain Are Not Receiving Adequate Relief
Chronic Pain
Deborah Mitchell on EmaxHealth wrote an interesting article concerning chronic pain patients and how effectively they are treated. The research suggests that many chronic pain patients are not given adequate pain relief in our present medical systems. For those who have experienced chronic pain, this news confirms their experiences.
Pain Management expert Kathryn Hahn discusses her findings in the issue of the Journal of Pain and Palliative Care Pharmacotherapy 2009; 23(4): 414-18.
Hahn argues that the failure to adequately treat pain associated with a variety of medical problems can be linked to physicians’ personal biases, inadequate training in pain management, and fear of prescription drug abuse. These hurdles need to be overcome, as Hahn says the situation is reaching “crisis proportions.”
With statistics showing that 76.2 million Americans suffer with chronic pain, this is a silent epidemic. Since acute pain and chronic pain have different paths in the body, chronic pain does not respond to many of the acute pain treatments. Hahn also notes that pain treatment is not a major part of medical school training, so most doctors may not be aware of all the options for treatments.
It is important especially for new patients to know that they must be vigilant in finding relief for their condition. We all must find a voice to help one another because at this point there is no definitive answer for chronic pain. Each person responds in a unique way. As patients we have the right not to suffer. We have already lost too many sufferers who could not battle the pain any longer.
Thank you Deborah Mitchell for an insightful piece. It is through awareness and education that we can help those who are suffering in silence.

I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you make this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz answer back as I’m looking to construct my own blog and would like to find out where u got this from. cheers
Wilcume to Camelot,
Thou art so kind to share your thoughts on this website. As far as the design of the blog I used a wordpress design template from a great designer whose link I placed on the sidebar. (Cloisters). I then modified the code to change the colors and some of the design to project my vision. If you are starting out there are many great designs available. However as you add more to your site, you may want to be able to make some changes and upgrade your blog. I hope I have answered your question. I wish you great luck with your new adventure.

My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on various websites for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Chrome. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon. Many thanks

This is like my fourth time visiting your homepage. Regularly I do not make comments on site, but I have to mention that this post really pushed me to do so. Really fantastic post .
Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and everything. However think of if you added some great pictures or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and clips, this site could undeniably be one of the most beneficial in its niche. Fantastic blog!
You just gotta be fond of this idea. I wrote a similar article and got a awesome amount of feedback. It is a rare post that is both fascinating and informative.
I believe that a foreclosure can have a significant effect on the applicant’s life. Real estate foreclosures can have a 8 to a decade negative effects on a borrower’s credit report. A new borrower having applied for a mortgage or virtually any loans for instance, knows that a worse credit rating will be, the more challenging it is to obtain a decent mortgage. In addition, it may affect any borrower’s capacity to find a really good place to let or rent, if that turns into the alternative property solution. Good blog post.
I have been really looking for something about this topic and your writing completely fits my current desires. Will you please make much more about these lines? People are looking for this knowledge and the sort of side comments which you supply.
